The impact of the African Diaspora in Spanish America is far greater
than is understood or acknowledged in the English speaking world.
Connected initially to the Spanish-Caribbean through trans-Atlantic
slavery, Africa is so deeply ingrained in the biology and culture of
these countries that, in the words of the Cuban poet Nicolas Guillen,
it would require the work of a miniaturist to disentangle that hieroglyph.
Through complex explorations of narratives of Spanish Blacks in the
Caribbean this collection of essays builds critically on mid and late
twentieth century Afro-Hispanist scholarship and thereby amplifies
the terms in which Africans in the Americas are generally discussed.
Each of these essays deals with a pivotal aspect of the African experience
in the Spanish speaking Caribbean from the period of slavery to the
present day. The essays focus on Black African cultures in Cuba,
Puerto Rico and the Dominican Republic as well as in the circum
Caribbean areas of Mexico and Colombia. In the process they cover
a vast and highly involved range of issues including abolition and the
politics of anti-slavery rhetoric, African women s political activism,
performance poetry and female embodiment of the Black Diaspora,
the Cuban Revolution and its investment in African liberation struggles,
race and intra-Caribbean migration, ritualised spirituality and African
healing practices among others. Through their investigation of both
official and popular cultures in the Caribbean not only do the essays
in this volume show the indispensable functions of African cultural
capital in the Spanish speaking Caribbean but they also underline the
multiple demographic, socio-political and institutional imperatives that
are at stake in considering contemporary understandings of the African
Diaspora.
Conrad James received his PhD in Modern Languages from the University
of Cambridge and teaches Spanish Caribbean and US Latino literature
at the University of Birmingham. He taught previously at the University of
Durham and has held visiting positions at the University of California
Santa Cruz and the University of Maryland. James has published
widely on Cuban women s writing and Afro-Cuban literature of the
20th century. He has also worked on Dominican and Dominican-
American fiction and poetry.
